Registered outcomes4

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAverage Pain Over the Last 24 Hours Score at Weeks 4, 8, and 12.Last 24 hours score at weeks 4, 8, 12 of the double-blind phaseSubjects were evaluated during the double-blind phase for "average pain over the last 24 hours" prior to the study visits. Pain scale is 11 points (0 = no pain to 10 = pain as bad as you can imagine)
SecondaryMean Daily Number of Supplemental Analgesic TabletsDouble-blind phase (84 days)The mean daily number of tablets of supplemental analgesic medications used during the double-blind phase
SecondaryOswestry Disability Index (ODI) Score (V 2.0)Weeks 4, 8, 12
The ODI (version 2) is a low back pain-specific, validated instrument that consists of questions related to limitations in performing specific activities of daily living and 1 question related to pain intensity. The ODI is a self-administered questionnaire that is usually completed in less than 5 minutes. The ODI consists of 10 sections. Each section consists of 6 statements ranked from 0 to 5 (0 = good to 5 = worse). (Note: A higher score represents greater disability.)
SecondaryThe Sleep Disturbance Subscale in the MOS-Sleep Scale at Weeks 4, 8, and 12.Weeks 4, 8, 12 of the double-blind phase
The MOS-Sleep Scale consists of 12 individual items: (4 sleep disturbance, 2 sleep adequacy, 1 quantity/ optimal sleep, 3 somnolence, 1 snoring, and 1 shortness of breath). Question 1 is scored on a scale of 1 to 5 and Questions 3 to 12 are scored on a scale of 1 to 6. The Sleep Disturbance Subscale score is derived from the scores to Questions 1, 3, 7 and 8, and ranges from 0 to 100, where higher scores indicate greater sleep disturbance.
